  • Why do humans fight? And do our conflicts follow the same logic as those of other animals? Jerusalem, for example, is one of the most fought-over places of all time, but people are clearly not just fighting for the physical bricks and mortar city...
    Watch Yuval Noah Harari's full conversation with author and ‪@GZEROMedia‬ founder ‪@Ian_Bremmer‬ at: bit.ly/BremmerYNH (filmed in March 2024).

      People do not fail to understand superficial point of view. Depending on Inteligence , analytical ability, critical thinking and being an independent thinker, some might fail to understand the real motivation to get the desired outcome.

    A bettle of stories? Stories start with facts on the ground, human needs at particular point and time. When a leader appears to fulfill those needs stories will be generated about him and events during that area.
    However, to define wars only as an outcome of "stories" seems too superficial.

    • @thecount1001

      it seems superficial because this is a brief clip of a very lengthy and well researched thesis. if you read Sapiens you would understand what he means.

    If Yuval wasn't indifferent about Iran situation during the last year's protestations, there wouldn't remain an Islamic regime to attack Israel on October 7th.
    With all due respect, I believe your indifference had an impact on your own life.

    • @Jgero11
      @Jgero11 Před měsícem +1

      They don't fight for natural resources, they make you believe that they do it because all the countries are part of your imagination, they don't exist. They exist only in paper, there is no tangible measurement that can prove the existence of the concept of "country".

    Russia is not fighting for land, yes, but they're not really fighting for a "story in their mind". They have very clearly been fighting due to concerns about NATO expanding towards its borders over a long period of time.
    Don't try to oversimplify things where Russia are "the bad guys" and the opponents are without any responsibility.

    • @thecount1001
      @thecount1001 Před měsícem

      NATO expansion was not happening nor going to happen. that is a story. a fiction, in your mind, planted there by Russian troll farms as a part of the propaganda war against the west. with these stories people like yourself are convinced of these lies, and hence, wars, and the support of wars of abject imperialist aggression occur. however, NATO has now expanded due to this aggression and formerly neutral states with tremendous military power are now a part of NATO, so the disinformation of this story had perverse and unintended outcomes for Putin.

      I have become a big Harari fan over the years, but it's really dissapointing to see the same person enriching people with perspectives is not losing many words about the conflict fought by his home country.
      Is he too delusional to see what's happening? Because he is a man of clarity as I see him...

    Why do people fight?
    Essentially,
    We are born into this world with a human nature toward Sin. Once that nature is realized; we are each selfish and want the things we want.
    Only the recognition of our Sin nature can bring us to the foot of the Cross.
    Christ Jesus gives us the answers to Redemption of humanity and human nature.
    We live in a broken and corrupted world.
    Only a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as our Savior and Redeemer,
    can we understand the world in which we live.
    Humans are not animals.
    Humans were originally created in the image of God.
    Humans are not gods.
    Yuval Noah Harari is planting seeds of deception into the young minds of our future generations. Be Aware.

    • @Jgero11
      @Jgero11 Před měsícem +3

      How is mad and lie on what he just said? I will give an example: It is easy to take a gun with your hands, you just grab the weapon and take it, and at the same time, it is also easy to throw a gun from your hands, it is just an action that anyone can endure. If all the humans would be able to do this and understand that they have power to obey or not to obey, no imaginary leader of any imaginary group would be able to mandate more suffering, because there wouldn't be men and women willing to take guns to fight their psychopathic wars. All of these actions come from the MIND, which is the command center of your actions in the physical spectrum (aka from imaginary stories that you have been implanted from the brainwashing machines and sources since childhood).

      For some it will seem mad or a lie, for others just a lack of a deeper understanding. Nobody owes a response to ones feelings.
